OCTOBER 8–10, 2026
WARSAW, POLAND
To show the need of combining preventive and interventional strategies for better CVD outcomes.
Invitation
For the first time, the Prevention & Intervention meeting will unite the cardiology community from across Central Europe into one platform, creating an annual hub of science, education, and collaboration tailored to the needs of our region.
Why this meeting is unique
- Regional impact: Central Europe is home to more than 150 million people and over 600 active interventional cardiology centers. Despite high-quality practice, our region has not yet had a common scientific platform.
- Strong scientific profile: The meeting combines original research (abstract sessions, late-breaking trials), state-of-the-art educational tracks, and registry collaboration.
- Comprehensive scope: Coronary interventions, imaging and physiology, structural heart interventions, preventive cardiology, support of women and young interventionalists, and system-level challenges.
- High-level faculty: Leading experts from Central Europe and invited global leaders.
- Visibility: An annual event positioned as the reference point for interventional cardiology in our region, with international outreach.
We look forward to welcoming you — please check back often for updates and follow our official channels to stay connected.

“Prevention & Intervention” Webinar Series
Ahead of the Summit, we are launching a dedicated webinar series under the patronage of AISN PTK: “Secondary Prevention Strategy — Residual Risk After Coronary Intervention”.
Four interactive online sessions (in Polish) addressing the key dimensions of residual risk after PCI:
- April 21 — Invasive assessment and PCI outcome as the starting point for secondary prevention
- May 5 — Residual thrombotic risk and long-term vascular protection
- May 26 — Lipid risk after PCI — why LDL still matters
- June 16 — Inflammation — the missing link in secondary prevention
Each 70-minute webinar combines expert lectures with real-world clinical cases and live audience interaction, bridging the interventional and preventive perspective. This series serves as a thematic prelude to the Central European Summit — bringing the conversation to your screen before we meet in Warsaw.
